Bonusview and BD-Live
Bonusview and BD-Live are features of the Blu-ray Disc
format.
Bonusview provides Picture in Picture and Virtual
Package functions for compatible discs. BD-Live discs
additionally provide a variety of features via the Internet.
Virtual Package/BD-LIVE data must be saved to
a USB memory device connected to the BDP300.
To enjoy these functions, connect a USB memory
device (minimum 1 GB capacity; 2 GB or more is
recommended) supporting FAT 32 and USB 2.0 High
Speed (480 Mbit/s) to the USB connector. (For details,
refer to 'USB Connection' on page E-9.)
If there is insufficient storage space, the data is not
<
copied/downloaded. Delete unneeded contents or
use a new USB memory device.
If a USB memory device containing other
<
contents (previously recorded) is used, the video
and audio may not play back properly.
If the USB memory device is disconnected from
<
this unit during playback of Virtual Package/
BD-LIVE contents, playback of the disc will stop.
Some time may be required for the contents to
<
load (read/write).
NOTE
It may not be possible to use the BD-LIVE
<
functions if there is insufficient space on
the USB memory device. In this case, refer
to 'Erase Blu-ray Storage?' on page E-21 for
erasing the Virtual Package contents and the
BD-LIVE contents in the USB memory device.
